Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration - Chapter 308

Chapter 308: A Small Help
“Take him down!”

Seeing that their side was surrounded by the sword formation, the sword cultivator controlling the flying sword could not be seen.

The captain of the Blood Saber Guards immediately took action personally, his blade aimed at Jiang Li’s head.

After all, Jiang Li was also the Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance. If they captured him, there might be a chance to escape unscathed.

However, five streaks of light instantly arrived. The five swords combined and repelled his blood saber.

The captain was forced back more than a hundred steps, and the blood saber almost left his hand. Looking at the edge of the saber, there was a bean-sized hole.

The sword formation of the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak was definitely not ordinary.

As long as the sword formation was large enough, it was not unheard of for Core Formation cultivators to slay Nascent Soul cultivators.

Even in a one-on-one battle, they were all elites. As long as they did not encounter a freak like Jiang Li, they would never lose to others of the same level.

Now, faced with the invasion of the Demon Sect, they displayed their strength again.

The quality of the Blood Saber Guards of the Myriad Slaughter Sect was extremely high. There were three Nascent Soul cultivators in this group alone, and the rest were all Core Formation experts.

If Jiang Li was really tricked here alone, it would really be a little dangerous under their siege.

However, as he had said before, such suspicious actions were actually a trap set by him.

Jiang Li had only predicted their reaction.

Apart from Jiang Li’s wisdom and foresight, there was another reason. Jiang Li had already planted a mole in the Immortal Ascension Pavilion back then.

After Huangfu Tai heard about the deal between Wen Huizhou and the Myriad Slaughter Sect in the Immortal Ascension Pavilion headquarters, he volunteered to return to the Great Mountain Region to participate in the plan.

Huangfu Tai had a deep background in the headquarters. Coupled with the fact that everyone thought that he had a feud with Jiang Li, he was not suspected and successfully returned to the Great Mountain Region.

At that time, in the secret basement of the Immortal Ascension Pavilion, he, as Jiang Li’s spy, watched innocently.

Those meticulous invasion plans had already fallen into Jiang Li’s ears.

If he could still be ambushed, then it could only mean that Jiang Li did not want to live.

The existence of the few traitors in the Scripture Storage Valley also made him think of a way to quickly find those Blood Saber Guards.

On the way here, he had already contacted the Sect Masters of the three major sects through the Great Mountain Alliance Leader Token and obtained their support.

His return time and route were also deliberately revealed.

It was to lure the Blood Saber Guards to attack him.

As long as he captured these Blood Saber Guards alive, he would be able to know the personnel structure of the Great Mountain Region and their investigation route as soon as possible.

Then, this happened.

The Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak sword cultivators with the fastest mobility rushed over and successfully gathered at this moment, catching them unprepared.

Jiang Li stood in the center of the battlefield, and the surrounding spiritual qi and flames of war flew everywhere.

However, under the protection of the Shu Mountain Sword Formation, his clothes were blown away by the air currents, but no one could injure him at all.

What he needed to do was to plant the flag on the ground and quickly form an array formation to seal this area, preventing them from informing their companions.

After using the Ground Control Flag in the previous battle, he discovered a shocking thing.

This treasure of the human race could actually forcefully seal the earth vein in the flag.

When faced with trouble, they could release the earth vein at any time to set up a high-level array formation without being affected by the geographical location.

Or he could move other earth veins and use them as nutrients to strengthen the mountain gate’s earth vein.

Either way, it had a very powerful effect.

Moving the earth vein or spiritual vein was a divine technique that was only heard of in legends. He did not expect that it would be grasped in his hand now.

It was no wonder that the ancient human dynasties all had dragon veins as their foundation to continue the country’s fate.

In a normal environment, the probability of finding a dragon vein was too low.

They could not relocate the entire country for a dragon vein.

Now, it seemed that those dynasties should have used this method to move and intercept the earth vein branches in other places to forcefully create the dragon vein.

A few hours later, the fluctuations on the battlefield stabilized.

Karla from the Scripture Storage Valley’s Heaven and Earth Hall had long died in the chaotic spiritual qi tide.

Of these 20 Blood Saber Guards, only three survived.

These cultivators of the Myriad Slaughter Sect were sufficiently ruthless. When the three Nascent Souls realized that the situation was hopeless, they brazenly self-destructed. Terrifying might swept through the entire battlefield, and the flying swords of Shu Mountain were greatly damaged because of this.

If not for Jiang Li’s fast reaction and using the Nine Nether Wood Wall to block the shock wave in time, the remaining three Core Formation cultivators would not have been able to stay.

It was not until the battlefield calmed that the Shu Mountain sword cultivators appeared from the clouds and landed beside Jiang Li.

“Thank you for your help. Please follow me back to the Misty Mountain Range to recuperate. When we obtain information from them, we will still need your help in the future.”

“We’ll listen to Alliance Leader Jiang’s orders.”

The wooden dragon swayed its body and the group flew back to the Misty Mountain Range, the headquarters of the Great Mountain Alliance.

The three captives were pulled to the dungeon of the Great Mountain Alliance and interrogated by the Hidden Rock cultivators.

It was originally very difficult to interrogate this kind of stubborn person to obtain true information.

Jiang Li could only personally take action. After consuming three spiritual root seeds, they told him everything they knew.

He had obtained the information, but this was only the first step.

Jiang Li brought the information into the Great Mountain Conference Hall.

Sword Head Shenshan, Daoist Wushe, and Abbot Le Ku left the mountain gate secretly and were waiting here.

Gasp~

As soon as Jiang Li entered, besides him, the true peak of authority in the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region were all surprised, and they gasped in unison.

It had only been a short while since Jiang Li led the team out of the Great Mountain Region. In their long lives, this bit of time was not worth mentioning.

However, upon seeing the Great Mountain Alliance Leader that the three of them had chosen together, they realized that they could not see through him anymore.

This was especially true for the blood qi that faintly seeped out of Jiang Li’s body. Others could not see it, but they could see bits and pieces.

For some reason, the pure blood qi gave them an extremely noble feeling.

Moreover, the aura that seeped out from his bones indicated that the current Jiang Li was much stronger than before.

However, business was more important now, so they did not probe too deeply into Jiang Li’s personal strength.

“Jiang Li, how’s the situation? Are you alright?”

“You’re using yourself as bait. It’s too reckless to take the risk personally. As the Alliance Leader, you can’t do this in the future.”

The three elders were most concerned about Jiang Li’s safety.

Jiang Li was from Daoist Wushe’s sect and was also the savior of Shenshan Jianyi’s granddaughter. Abbot Le Ku had even taken an Earth-rank medicinal pill from him earlier.

They all thought very highly of this junior.

“This is my duty. I will take note in the future.”

“However, the current situation is still not optimistic.”

“The Myriad Slaughter Sect has sent out 300 Blood Saber Guards this time. Two of them are in the Soul Formation realm!”

Two Soul Formation cultivators, 298 Nascent Soul and Core Formation cultivators. Every single one of the three major sects of the Great Mountain Region could grit their teeth and mobilize this number of people.

However, to the Myriad Slaughter Sect, this was only their scouts. They were not even the vanguard.

If the main force of the Myriad Slaughter Sect attacked, it was unknown to what extent the Great Mountain Region would face a storm.

Just exterminating these 300 people was enough to give them a headache.

In order to achieve the effect of confusing the Myriad Slaughter Sect, while they killed these guys, they could not let them send out news.

They had to have artifacts like the Ground Control Flag to restrict communication. However, such artifacts usually had a range limit and required a certain amount of preparation time.

He could deal with Nascent Soul cultivators, but how should he deal with those two Soul Formation cultivators?

At that level, even if they had the advantage in numbers, it was not so easy to defeat them.

After chasing and fleeing for thousands of miles, it was normal for there to be no result.

If he could not kill those Soul Formation cultivators, he would let them escape in the end.

If news was spread, it was very likely to expose the weakness of the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region.

Now, a large portion of the Great Mountain Region’s forces were invested in the war with the Armored Trolls.

At that time, it would be bad if the enemy attacked at once.

“Perhaps I can give it a try and invite them into our trap!”

“However, we still need someone’s help to do this.”

At this moment, Sword Head Shenshan pondered for a long time before suggesting a plan.

…

A few days later, the Immortal Ascension Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, Wen Huizhou, was sitting in his pavilion and enjoying his tea. Beside him, a handsome little boy with disheveled clothes was pouring tea for him.

The blood-colored tea flowed into the cup, emitting a strange fragrance that could only bloom in despair.

Wen Huizhou enjoyed the tea. He was very satisfied with the gift brought by the Myriad Slaughter Sect.

Just as he was about to pick up the teacup and enjoy it properly, the tea in the teacup in front of him suddenly rippled.

He frowned and looked at the sky outside. The originally sunny day had already been covered by a thick layer of dark clouds.

The elegant Wen Huizhou’s right hand holding the fan involuntarily tightened. At this moment, a drop of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The Immortal Ascension Pavilion’s Great Mountain Branch, which was one of the top commercial buildings in the entire cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region, was currently floating 60 flying ship warships that had been fully charged.

The bow cannon of the warship was in a state where it could be fired at any time. In the blink of an eye, it could crush half of the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

It was the Great Mountain Alliance’s fleet. From the looks of it, they had come with ill intentions.

“Impossible. Who leaked the secret?”

Wen Huizhou knew best what he had done. The cooperation with the Myriad Slaughter Sect had definitely offended the Great Mountain Region.

Since the Great Mountain Alliance had already taken such a stance to come looking for him, he no longer held any hope.

Today’s matter would probably not be resolved. However, he was the only Soul Formation cultivator in the Great Mountain Branch. He did not need to calculate to know that his side had a very low chance of winning against the Great Mountain Alliance.

“Activate the defensive array formation. Everyone, prepare to face the enemy!”

Pavilion Master Wen’s elegant aura had already disappeared. He took off the jade pendant on his waist and ordered all the cultivators in the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

However, one breath, two breaths, and three breaths passed.

There was no response from the jade pendant.

He vaguely felt that something was amiss. The warship of the Great Mountain Alliance had flown so close but did not sound the alarm. He only knew this when he saw it.

What about his subordinates? What about the Immortal Ascension Pavilion’s array formation? There was no reaction at all. There must be something wrong!

“All deacons and elders, come to my pavilion immediately to report the situation!”

He was still trying, hoping that things were not really that bad.

However, the sound that came from the jade pendant made him feel as if he was struck by lightning.

“There’s no need to shout. When you were playing with that child, your subordinates were already killed by me.”

“Pavilion Master Wen, oh Pavilion Master Wen. I didn’t expect that you actually have such a hobby.”

The voice that came from the jade pendant was Jiang Li’s. He was currently standing in the main control room of the Immortal Ascension Pavilion’s array formation.

Now, more than 80% of the array formation nodes in the entire Immortal Ascension Pavilion were in his hands. He could control the array formation to self-destruct even if he wanted to.

The Immortal Ascension Pavilion was different from ordinary sects. They were a force formed by merchants. Even the main branch had to do business.

The three major sects and the Great Mountain Alliance had long-term stalls here.

After spending a few days, a large number of elite cultivators from the Great Mountain Alliance walked in openly.

Jiang Li even used Huangfu Tai to trick the key elders of the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

A thousand miles of dam would collapse from an ant’s nest, let alone such a huge hole.

The strongest of the elders who were tricked out was only at the Nascent Soul realm. Moreover, they were basically not good at fighting.

There were three more Nascent Soul-level experts on his side now: Jiang Li himself, his Nine Nether clone, and the Dragon Transformation Island’s Nascent Soul Ming Duowei who had abandoned evil and joined the Rock Army as a Hidden Rock cultivator.

The ability of the spiritual root seed to control people was too dangerous. It was easy to arouse the suspicion and fear of others. It was not suitable for outsiders to know.

Therefore, Jiang Li personally led the Hidden Rock Army and captured them separately. He spent a few days controlling more than half of the key positions in the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

How could the Immortal Ascension Pavilion resist this sudden attack?

Therefore, when the Great Mountain Alliance’s flying ship arrived at the city, not only did the entire Immortal Ascension Pavilion not sound the alarm, they even secretly affected it and blocked Wen Huizhou’s senses.

The current building was not only useless to Pavilion Master Wen, it was also a fatal cage.

“What do you want? If the Great Mountain Region does not welcome our Immortal Ascension Pavilion, we can leave immediately.”

“Aren’t you afraid of our Pavilion Headquarters questioning you for your actions?”

Wen Huizhou had already sensed that several powerful auras had locked onto him. As long as he made any abnormal movements, he would be attacked by lightning.

Currently, they could only use the name of the Immortal Ascension Pavilion’s Headquarters to suppress them.

The problem was that although the Great Mountain Alliance could not defeat the Myriad Slaughter Sect, they were not intimidated by the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

The latter had yet to join the Divine Judgment Hall. If they really fought, the Great Mountain Alliance would not lose.

However, they did not come here to fight today.

“Pavilion Master Wen, you might have misunderstood. We’ve been neighbors with the Immortal Ascension Pavilion for more than a hundred years. Why would we chase you away?”

“However, I believe Pavilion Master Wen knows that there are some troublesome matters in the Great Mountain Region recently. I hope you can help me with a small matter.”
